N,N'-Bis[(E)-(3-methyl-2-thienyl)methyl-idene]ethane-1,2-diamine.

ABSTRACT: Two independent half-mol-ecules, each being completed by inversion symmetry, comprise the asymmetric unit of the title compound, C(14)H(16)N(2)S(2). The major difference between the mol-ecules is found in the central C-C bond [the C-N-C-C torsion angles are 114.66 (18) and 128.94 (18)° in the two mol-ecules]. The thio-phene and imine groups are almost co-planar in each case [S-C-C-N torsion angles = -6.9 (2) and -3.6 (2)°]. In the crystal, the mol-ecules aggregate into supra-molecular chains via C-H⋯π inter-actions.
